"AirSoft" meetings are rapidly gaining popularity as both "MilSim" (Military Simulation) and less formal "gaming" activities. Unlike the more familiar "paint ball" event, in an AirSoft encounter players rely on each others' honesty to admit to being hit, because unlike paintballs, airsoft ammunition (BB's) does not leave visible marks on clothing.

Quinta da Póvoa's 70ha provides a wide variety of terrain for AirSoft meetings - some of it particularly suited to ambush situations!
